Jonesing for more Jacko?
Poor you. From Michael Musto: "John Waters had sensibly told me, 'Whatever the verdict is, I'll be shocked.' It's so true. No matter what the outcome, I would have been screaming and throwing things." From New Yawk's Village Voice,
"The case had more holes than a botched nose job." And yet more from the Voice:
"Those Lips, Those Lies."
There's lots more earnest gay pre verdict chatter:
"Dangerous, or just off the wall: Some fear being associated with Jackson's 'perversion.'"
From The Advocate (also pre verdict), a writer wonders why he assumes Michael Jackson is
guilty, guilty, guilty.
Post V-day, PlanetOut:
"Michael Jackson and the specter of the gay boogeyman."
Queer intellectuals and gossipmongers will be cranking it out: check back! I'll add to this list over the next couple of days.
STOP THE PRESSES. Gawker presents
headlines we need to see.
From the horse's mouth (ahem): Mikie is darned important. He's
made HIStory. And dahlink, my
previous Wacko post's here.
NEW for Thursday:
Quick profiles of the real charmin' demonstrators at the Michael Jackson trial. One sign read "America: Execute All Homosexuals and Pedophiles Right Now!" Another yelled at a Court TV reporter: "'Diane Dimond is a snake! Court TV sucks!' he bellowed, the words picked up by his friends. This escalated to 'Diane Dimond is a bitch!' and, finally, 'Sneeze, whore, sneeze!'"
